Description
Transform your garden with this gorgeous standard Lavender 'Munstead'. This cottage classic will fill the air with stunning fragrance and is the perfect plant for adding some height to your beds and borders. They will attract bees and other pollinators perfect for fruit tree growers! Very hardy, incredibly easy to grow, and drought tolerant keep them in great shape by pruning twice a year in spring and late summer. You can even cut the stems to make fragrant indoor dried displays. Delivered as an established plant in a standard form, approx. 70cm tall, ready to pot on or plant out.
Top Tips
In late summer, clip the plants back lightly after the flowers have faded. Cut the stems back by a few inches, but not so far that the stems are bare of live foliage, and plants will then have time to produce new shoots before winter dormancy.
Care Information
  • This drought-tolerant plant thrives in a sunny border, container, herb or gravel gardens.
  • Best planted between April and May when the soil is warming up, lavender thrives in most free-draining soils in full sun.
  • Heavier soils should have some grit added to improve drainage and to open them up.
  • Lavender can be grown in large pots, 30-40cm (1ft-16in) diameter, using a multipurpose or loam-based compost such as JI No 3, with some extra coarse grit, (up to 30%), to improve drainage, along with some controlled release fertiliser granules.
  • Ensure that the compost is regularly watered in summer, although for improved cold tolerance, kept on the dry side during winter by standing in a  cold greenhouse or in the rain shadow of walls.
